       We finally get the menagerie calmed and back in their cages. I head back to the
       cabin only to find Lillie gone and to be confronted by the sinister monkey which turns

       on me, hisses and dives out the cabin window.

       I run out on deck to see Lillie teetering on the gunwale in a trance like state. Running

       over I grab her just as she steps off. I splash cold water on her face and bring her
       round. As the daze fades from her eyes, she cries out and grabs me close crying into my

       shoulder.


       It is a beautiful day and we take a walk along the shore. We come to a large natural

       pool & Lillie asks if I can keep guard as she strips to her undergarments for a swim.
       She catches me looking and pushes me off the rocks, playfully saying “No peeping Doctor!”
